Root Case’s Wood iPad 2 Case (video)

We loved the Cartella for the Macbook Air. The inspiration for the case is drawn from the classic, but always durable Moleskin notebooks. So if you’re down with that it’s only fitting that you procure a complementary apparatus for your iPad – one that exudes that same class and sophistication.

The Root Case Wood iPad 2 Case comes in Walnut or Bamboo. Which finish you choose will be dependent on your penchant for sustainability – they say they plant a tree in for every case purchased – but both cost $79. The cover is held closed with a magnetic latch and the entire iPad is protected not only from a short drop to the floor, but prying eyes looking to pick up a new tablet using their five finger discount.

Grew up back East, got sick of the cold and headed West. Since I was small I have been pushing buttons - both electronic and human. With an insatiable need for tech I thought "why not start a blog focusing on technology, and use my dislikes and likes to post on gadgets."

I agree, DO NOT order from this company! I received a broken case (cracked at the top and bottom) and when i tried to contact them there was no response. I sent three e-mails and not one response. They don’t have a phone number or a return address to contact them. I then added a comment on Facebook about the port customer service and they DELETED my comment and blocked me. I’ve never been treated so badly by any retail company. It;s total fraud.

i had the same experience. they sent me the wrong case. and the one they sent was used/damaged. i have sent three emails and no response. there is no phone number on their website. DO NOT BUY FROM THE COMPANY!

DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS ROOT CASE. The first case I received did not even fit my phone. After 3 weeks, I finally got my replacement. However, this case only lasted 2 weeks before the bottom portion completely broke off (I’ve never dropped phone). I sent 3 emails but still have not heard back (2 months ago). Numerous other people have had similar problems, but their comments have been quickly deleted by the Root Case owner. Poor product and poor company.
